These figures are at the wheel and according to Guy at CPL equate to 295bhp at the fly. These figures are very different to the ones I got from Abbey Motorsport, they gave me 294 @ the hubs with less boost than I am running now! makes you wonder who's figures are true?

Thanks mate, and good luck tomorrow, show those guys what Kpro can do.
By the way, Guy may have a solution over the flash thing but we will have to wait for Hondata to do something with the software, so fingers crossed.
Glad to see you have no knock too.

I'm thinking about taking my car to cpl for upgrades... CPL Racing convince me why CPL are the best!?

I'm looking at spending around £6000 on a standard CTR to get it up to around 240 - 260bhp!

Costa,

Why don't you trade in your CTR and spend some of the £6k on a DC5 for 20bhp to start and spend the rest on upgrades? :wink:

Its not worth the hastle! Ultimatley I'll be exchanging my car with one that has the exact same engine! Agreed it's 20bhp in front of the CTR, but CPL said they could get me to 260 well within my budget.

Plus if I exchange for a DC5 I'll be spending more money that way. I don't think I could do I strait swap, but if I can I would like to know where!?

Its easier to make more power in the DC5 for some reason so if you have the budget to get one, I would, thats what I did. The DC5 is better in many ways over the CTR and looks bloody great. Plus the CTR is now as common as muck (still a good car, don't get me wrong). CPL will do a good job for you at a good price, I would have no worries in recommending them to you.

Well I'm still paying for my car on Honda Finance and I have an option with them to exchange my car for a better model anytime I wish and just pay the extra on top. But they only sell second hand ITR and they're the old 1.8 models! I'd have to make some kind of deal with Honda and buy an imported one from japaneseperformancecars or Litchfield Imports. The problem with this is that i'll loose my exchange bonus and i'll end up paying too much in APR. If only Honda sold DC5's :(
